Daily Note

Well, this run didn't feel great. Simply just walking around felt a little off, which is always how I seem to feel on travel days. Last night also probably contributed some. Tons of fun with the boys...maybe the best turnaround I've ever seen. Shoutout to Frank & Fernando in that regard. Was also super fun to hang out with CMS. Meant that sleep was also limited. All three of these factors came together and contributed to my off feeling when we got back to campus at 1:30pm. Very glad I hit up lunch cause felt more energetic after that. Eventually got out for my run at 5:30pm when the weather was 40 degrees, 15mph winds, and dark. Fun to get back out there and have my pacing perception messed with thanks to the nighttime conditions. Did a loop around Northfield that had me hitting up the block streets on both the east and west side of the Cannon. Just kept things super easy and relatively comfortable. Even with that a cramp seemed to develop. Legs also felt yesterday's race a ton. More so than usual...perhaps due to the muddy conditions stimulating different/certain muscles more? Got the miles in though and was super nice to breath in the fresh air. Realized that running on sidewalks at night is a lot more dangerous than the streets in terms of footing...not a fan. Still glad I got out there though and kept up with my tradition of running the day after a season's final race. I just like making sure that the last effort in my legs isn't a hard race or even a cool down. Also debating a Turkey Troy, so this keeps that option open. Rolling in the room after. Kinvara2 @ 213.24 miles. 2019 mileage @ 3441.6 miles.
